No-Bake Cookies
No-Bake Cookies combine butter, milk, and sugar boiled together, then mixed quickly with oats, cocoa powder, peanut butter, and vanilla. The mixture sets without baking into soft, chewy cookies with a chocolate-peanut flavor. This recipe is handy for a quick, sweet treat using simple pantry staples and requires no oven time.

Ingredients
- 1/2 cup butter
- 1/2 cup milk
- 2 cups sugar
- 3 cups oats use old-fashioned oats. If using quick oats, reduce by 1/4 cup
- 1/2 cup cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup peanut butter creamy
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- In a large pot, bring butter, milk, and sugar to a boil. Stir while boiling for 1 minute. Remove from heat. Quickly stir in the remaining ingredients until combined. Immediately use a cookie scoop to place scoops of dough on prepared baking sheets of waxed paper or aluminum foil. Allow 5-10 minutes to set and cool.
- **It's a good idea to have all the ingredients you stir into the boiled mixture pre-measured so the process is quick and the cookie ‘batter’ comes together properly.
